Placing the switcher

Add the currency switcher and the product price list to your site through a shortcode, an Elementor widget, a classic-theme navigation menu item, or a block-theme Shortcode block.

Shortcode

Paste the switcher shortcode into any post, page, or shortcode-aware template. The optional size attribute accepts small, medium, or large; leaving it out uses the size saved on the Display Options tab.

Switcher shortcode: [mhmcs_currency_switcher] · Price list: [mhmcs_currency_prices]

Renamed in 2.0.0. These tags used to be [mhm_currency_switcher] and [mhm_currency_prices]. The old spellings were removed rather than kept as aliases, so a page still holding one shows the raw text instead of the switcher — update any post, page or template that uses them. WordPress.org reads a shortcode's prefix up to the first underscore, which made the old tags "mhm": three letters against a four-letter minimum. Your stored data is untouched; only the tags you type into content changed.

Elementor

Drag the Currency Switcher widget from the Elementor panel onto your layout. The product price list is available the same way, as the Currency Prices widget.

Go to Appearance → Menus and add the Currency Switcher item to a menu. This screen only exists on classic themes; on a block theme use the shortcode or Elementor instead.

Block themes

This plugin does not provide its own block yet. Use the core Shortcode block and paste either shortcode into it.
